Hi,

I changed the Vodafone boot logo in my Huawei Ascend g300 yesterday and after that I am not able to continue with the OS becasue the screen “HUAWEI” in the startup show this logo and reboot every time. The change that I made was in the path ./System in the root device. I don´t have way to see the root path again to fix it, any idea? thanks!!!

i would like to download adb for Jelly bean 4.1.1 on Nokia N9 it’s not the original android i’ve installed it is there a proposition

Otherwise, what advantage to THEM, in taking-down the above link via a DMCA request?

I’m sure it’s better for THEM if people can use their phones properly, to the fullest-potential, not have their systems damaged by bloatware. Makes the phones more attractive to ‘power users’…

Shame the idiot bean-counters ‘can only see’ what’s on their spreadsheets, and forget the unquantifiable and objective USEFULNESS OF TECHNOLOGY (as opposed to it’s solely-money-making-potential-in-the-hands-of-capitalist-lawyers-and-accountants; the assholes.

WORKAROUND – extract the hidden files from inside the HTC installer. Instead of downloading from some untrusted source like some dude’s Dropbox or something, which I will NEVER recommend (no-one to sue if it damages your OS, hahaha).

WORKAROUND IS THIS:

Run the official bloat-ridden HTC installer in a sandbox – OR AS A LIMITED USER (i.e. do NOT accept the UAC prompt):

Pretend to go through with the install until the point at which it’s trying to actually install each component and copy files to your operating system…

DO NOT close the installer – it should complain that the installation of each component in the above list FAILS (good!) and prompt if you want to continue or cancel. Just click on nothing and ignore it, then:

But how to operate adb and fastboot commands in cmd using universal driver installer…??? Plz help…

Hello, all. I bought my wife a tablet so she could read digital books, etc. I guess I got a good deal, but I’m still ‘learning’, so, maybe not. I got a WM-8880-MID / ForFun_V7, for $79.99, free ship. I like to hack stuff, but I can’t get this thing to show up in windoz, or move apps to the sd card. The techknow.me forum says the ROM is broken, & they have a beta to fix moving apps, but lately it fails to show up it Win7HP. Kinda’ hard to get anything accomplished, IYKWIM. TIA Have a GREAT day, neighbors!

Any suggestions for a drivers for ADB with the icraig cmp748 device with id USB\VID_16D5&PID_8001&MI_01 ? Tried the google drivers to no avail, using adb finds no devices even when the device is installed. Thanks in advance!

Hey, Thanks For Your Helps But I Have A Problem ! I Downloaded The Android Update And Renamed It To A .Zip File And Copy And Paste It To My Nexus S But I Cannot Find It On The Phone ! I Cannot Even Find It From The Explorer Of My Phone. I Cannot Find It But When I Connect The Phone To My PC I Can See It. What`s The Matter?

Someone necessarily assist to make critically articles I would state. That is the very first time I frequented your website page and so far? I surprised with the research you made to create this actual put up extraordinary. Great process!

@Emrys: If you have to use ADB or Fastboot, or if you want to put your device in USB debugging mode. Honestly unless you explicitly need the drivers, you don’t need to install them.

Emrys

Download and install went fine. After restart my Pdanet was restored, but I can not find my Andriod on the system even though the message “my device is ready to use” came up. I wonder what this driver is supposed to do.
